Mech Factory

The Mech Factory offers a complete, searchable, categorized database of Classic Battletech mechs, battle armors, combat vehicles and protomechs, with all relevant stats, histories and record sheets. It provides information about all Battletech components and their board game rules too, and contains brief descriptions about the CBT powers, fractions, clans, worlds and history. This app could come handy when you play Battletech Board game, or simply read Battletech fiction. If you are a mechwarrior, this reference is just for you. And beside all the library info the app features a complete Mech Editor, a Roster Editor and a simplified combat trial simulation to test out new or existing designs.Because this app uses the database of the Mech Factory (http://battletech.rpg.hu), it requires internet access to download larger texts or pictures. After you downloaded a design, it will remain on your device, and it will be accessible offline. To enable content downloading you have to register your free account on the Mech Factory (if you don't have it already). With a valid Mech Factory user name you can use both the web page and the mobile app. You can even star your favourite designs to build your own list, and favourites will be syncronized to the web page.First time you use this app, a simple graphical tutorial will help your initial steps.The app features a roster editor with a built in unit generator in online mode. Rosters can be syncronized to our online space to keep them safe and enable roster printing. When using the Mech editor you can save your mech creations to our server to keep them safe. The app needs registration to use it's all features. If you have problems with registration please contact us or try registering online (see page below).We have included a complete BMR and a MW3 rulebook, because we think that they are abandonware. If you have problems with that, please report us by mail. Note, that we won't feature contents from Total Warfare due legal considerations.Our combat trial feature let you run simulated boardgame combats between two mechs. It is a great tool to evulate combat performance in regulated environment and to get a raw feeling what a mech is capable. The Mech Editor is a complete tool to design new mechs from scratch or redesign existing ones. It sports the rules from Tech Manual, Tactical Ops and other rulebooks to validate designs. It will calculate Battle Values and Costs on the fly. In online mode you can share your mechs or print their record sheets too.

An excellent reference app with great Mech, Vehicle, BA and now Aerospace builders. A must have for BT tinkerers on the go! Unfortunately doesn't seem to support using record sheets in app during a regular game instead of on paper. There is some confusing virtual tabletop thing, but it's clunky and very much doesn't seem intended to be used alongside mapsheets and minis.

Loving the app! Haven't tried all the features as yet, but for information collated it's excellent! Would be nice if the illustrations were zoomable/full screen option?

Great app for mech research and list building. Record sheets are good, but not the quality of Megamek on PC. No superheavy mech sheets at all.

Great app and very useful. My only complaints are the need to go back and forth from the database to create a roster or the inability to switch the order of units once placed. Otherwise works great

Zac. C. Mar 15, 2022     

Worked great until it didnt. Suddenly unable to login. Can't get access to any of my saved rosters or customs

Great mobile tool for Battletech, it is always being updated, expanded, and improved upon. If you ever run into any issues, with any part of this app, make sure to get in touch with the developer. They are very dedicated and hard working, and will keep at it in order to help solve your problem, even going as far as to debug the app itself for you. Outstanding work, I completely recomend downloading and supporting!

The absolute best compendium of datasheets and info of the BattleTech universe for mobile devices.

Pet. D. Oct 13, 2020     

I've been using this app for a number of years across multiple devices including the bookmarked website on my computer. It is my go to for checking details on existing tech (not limiting it to just battlemechs as I use it for aerospace, vehicles and battle armour) As well as non-technical stuff historical information, characters and factions. Invaluable for tabletop war games and role-playing. Awesome app keep up the good work!

Everything you need to play the table top game, But the maps and mins....

Cli. G. Dec 11, 2021     

I look at this app all the time, it's a great Battletech quick reference and has a lot of cool features.

Rui. A. Jun 19, 2020     

I was a bit weirded out by the login and permissions, but got passed that and this app is amazing! Use it! I'm newer to Battletech and just atarting to build my lance and this is an awesome tool to help build it, especially not knowing all of the possible options. I always have a Sarna tab open with it. It's a little clunky to use starting out but stick with it and use the help screens. A desktop version would be pretty lit. Let's go stompy robots!

It's fantastic. Not much to say other than that. I will say that there is an issue adding Aerospace fighters to rosters. For instance if I try to add a Shilone fighter it will add a strumfeur combat vehicle instead. Very odd.

This is easily one of the best apps, cross genre, you can get for a smart phone. Capable, powerful, stable and very well supported. The manner in which this app was developed and is maintained should be a top tier example to every other app dev on the market. Well done, folks.

As a Battletech fan, I appreciate what this app does, but the privacy policy that you need to accept for unrestricted access to its features is asinine. I see no reason why use of this app requires my real name, my IP address, or my geolocation (which your disclaimer in the app specifically mentions). That is beyond invasive, and to use this I have to accept that you can do whatever you deem necessary with that info. No. Just no.

Glitchy, often stuck at login screen for more than 60 seconds.

Sky. L. Mar 6, 2020     

It wants full access to all my photos. I guess that includes all my cloud-linked photos. I do not believe it should have that access. They need to find a way to limit it. It also wants full access to all of my media. That's all videos, and audio files. I don't want to give that either.

Super duper useful, concise, and detailed. Literally better than Battlescribe (which is good because battlescribe doesn't even have a battletech data module).

Fro. B. Oct 22, 2021     

Hmmmm... Opening tabs, app crashes. Uninstall and reinstalled, problem persists. Hoping it fixes in next update. Edit: problem appears solved. Good, i like this app a lot

Jam. E. Jul 15, 2021     

Great experience. I download my sheets all the time. the print is a little tiny, but everything you need is on that one sheet.

Ala. P. Jun 1, 2019     

A comprehensive tool for designing 'Mechs and vehicles from all eras with so much good stuff included, this app is a must. Well worth the ten bucks to unlock unlimited 'Mech customizations.

Sim. Y. D. Mar 23, 2021     

like the app, but once you close it for the first time it crashes whenever you try to log in, whether it's online or offline. This is on a Stylo 5

Non. B. Jun 11, 2020     

Other than a few missing mechs and vehicles, and a bug dealing with targeting computers, I love the program. It allows me to custom make mechs...

Ant. E. Oct 6, 2018     

I love that I can build mechs before taking my designs to the table top game. I think the only problem I'm running to at this moment is that there is no mechwarrior builder side of this app😞

rah. g. Oct 28, 2020     

Love mechwarrior. Thanks for introducing me to all tehse new mechs! You can improve the way it looks visually but homestly that's my only suggestion because the app ROCKS!

Cas. C. Dec 17, 2020     

Learned its functions quickly. Good detail. The only problem is that PPCs cannot be placed in the arms.

Bry. Mar 2, 2022     

Buggier than a locust. I love it.
